Yet another word game

[Larry Duff]

Tale as old as time.

 

[Vcore89]

Time After Time is a song by Cyndi Lauper.

 

[jimmy8]

Lauper just wants to have fun.

 

[Larry Duff]

Fun Boy 3 were an English band who formed when The Specials broke up.

 

[jimmy8]

Up is where you will look, down in hell.

 

[naturalexponent]

Hell no, we won’t go!

 

[Vcore89]

Go-go relates to a type of nightclub or disco where dancers perform.

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Perform(ers) like Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, and James Dean were influenced by method acting.

 

[Vcore89]

Method actors work from the inside out in a relentless search for the “truth” of the character, learning everything they can about them.

 

[jimmy8]

Them Springfield, Ohio people, they are eating pets.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

Pets in Springfield's Simpson family house didn't enjoy the rant.

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Rant and rave, there is nothing to save; next comes the grave.

 

[Bartelby]

Grave is deep trouble, both literally and metaphorically.

 

[Larry Duff]

Literally and metaphorically are often used incorrectly in sentences, as is proverbial.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Proverbial character assassins have the perfect stage for practice on the world wide web.

 

[jimmy8]

Web of lies during the debate was hilarious.

 

[KingCarlitos]

Hilarious is the boldness of youth.

 

[KingCarlitos]

Youth is the cost of experience.

 

[KingCarlitos]

Experienced in watching the Big Three trash everyone, I am.

 

[Bartelby]

Am I my brother's keeper?

 

[jimmy8]

Keeper of the box of electoral votes got the box out of the chamber before the rioters got in.

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

In the school of hard knocks, one will learn life's most valuable lessons.

 

[Larry Duff]

Lessons in the high backhand volley would quickly pay off.

 

[jimmy8]

Off to the looney bin you go.

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Go now, and never darken my towels again

 

[jimmy8]

Again, you come to my house, that's stalking!

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Stalking, no, no, no- I meant to say "Christmas stocking", not that that makes any more sense, now that I think of it.

 

[Mike Bulgakov]

It came from outer space.

 

[Larry Duff]

Space, the final frontier.

 

[milk of amnesia]

Frontier Airlines is an ultra-budget airlines; I've never flown them - too afraid.

 

[jimmy8]

Afraid of the dark?

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

“Dark Shadows” was a show I hated to miss in my preteen years.

 

[Vcore89]

“Dark Shadows” was a show I hated to miss in my preteen years.

Preteen years, let the kids roam free, let them have their independence, let them learn to fail, and fail better instead of being too risk-averse.

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Risk-averse is how I feel when I have to begin a sentence with "risk-averse"- so I am ending this
sentence (for no particular reason) with the word "sometimes".

 

[naturalexponent]

Sometimes I run; sometimes I hide; sometimes I'm scared of you...

 

[milk of amnesia]

You are the best!

 

[naturalexponent]

The best -- settle for nothing less!

 

[Larry Duff]

Less than zero

 

[milk of amnesia]

"Zero-sum game," is a mathematical model that depicts a zero net benefit.

 

[jimmy8]

Benefit I like is money.

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Money is like manure, it's not worth a thing unless you spread it around.

 

[Vcore89]

Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Jules Verne is considered by many to be the father of science fiction, however with her novel Frankenstein, (1818)
Mary Shelly may be considered the mother of science fiction,

 

[Rafa.the.Magnificent]

Fiction writers have my utmost admiration.

 

[jimmy8]

Admiration doesn't come cheap.

 

[Vcore89]

Cheap? Are you frugal or being cheap?

 

[Larry Duff]

Cheap dates ask for Bud Light.

 

[jimmy8]

Light breaks through yonder window.

 

[Bagumbawalla]

Window breaks due to practicing tennis strokes in the house.

 

[jimmy8]

House sitters are pretty lucky when they sit in a luxury home.
